4. Look - That Is What I Kinda Said To Him.....

Wed Jul 23, 2014, 03:24 AM

Jul 2014

I'm just relaying what I heard from him today and passing it on here. The point being is that Repub voters are finally getting the message and are turning on their party. Others that I know are upset about other issues the Repubs are on the wrong side of.

That's why I can't believe that the Repubs are so secure and smug with maintaining the House and taking the Senate. Their own constituency seems to be turning on them.

Now I don't know if Boehner & McConnell are getting that message there up on Capitol Hill. Are they getting that message and trying to fake that everything is ok or are they just ignoring that message from their constituency and still proceeding on this path to self destruction?

I mentioned in an earlier post that I don't believe the MSM when they say that the Repubs will maintain the House and have a chance at taking the Senate. How could they be in such a good position - when they are on the wrong side of just about every major issue?

Republican *likes* the health plan developed by Mitt and Heritage! nt Romulox Jul 2014 #11

No, the ACA was not "developed" by Mitt Romney and Heritage. tridim Jul 2014 #14

Of course it was. It's called "Romneycare" in Massachusetts. It's just a fact. nt Romulox Jul 2014 #15

The ACA was developed by Obama and the Democrats. Romneycare was developed by Romney. tridim Jul 2014 #16

They are essentially the same plan. Rewriting history doesn't help. It's ridiculous. nt Romulox Jul 2014 #17

That's not what you claimed. tridim Jul 2014 #18

Splitting hairs is not helpful. Orsino Jul 2014 #21

Words mean things, so yes, splitting hairs is extremely important. tridim Jul 2014 #24

You can trace it back to Richard Nixon. progressoid Jul 2014 #23

Nobody here refers to it as "Romneycare". No one. Tracer Jul 2014 #26

Does anyone refer to it at all anymore? Blue_Adept Jul 2014 #28

Yes. We are almost as embarrassed about it as Mitt. n/t Orsino Jul 2014 #31

Did you tell him they have tried to take it away dozens of times? Orangepeel Jul 2014 #13
